The American accent has been heavily influenced by many other accents: namely, the Irish accent, the Spanish accent, the Italian accent, and, of course, the British English accent, due to America’s history of immigration.
THE IRISH came from the four corners of Ireland, they came in their droves and settled firstly along the east coast of America. ‘They made their home’ in the big cities of New York, Boston and many more!
